Default LED bulbs in tails

i have a question on some LED tails I bought recently. They are 18 LED per bulb (ill post the link) 7443 and when I put them in they blew two fuses. I had extras and it did the same thing to those too when I turned them on. Its a 10 amp fuse, does anybody have any tips or ways to put the LED bulbs in the tails without blowing the fuse?

I have LED tails, i think i have like the 9 LED array. No problems. Try using a bigger fuse.

yea but i heard its not good to throw a bigger fuse into a spot that had a smaller fuse....maybe im mistaken but you think going from a 10 to a 20 would do it

I hope that's not for your reverse light... b/c you're not going to be able to see jack ____.
